Description

Death Knights of Krynn is the 2nd volume of the Dragonlance epic and is the sequel to Champions of Krynn. Characters from that game may be imported to this game.

This time the party faces an undead threat that turns former friends into fierce enemies and infests Krynn with hordes of decaying monsters. The party must find the origin of these nightmarish undead creatures and eliminate it in order to save Krynn from turning into a land of undead.

Like Champions of Krynn, Death Knights of Krynn introduces a different and unique character selection with the availability of the "Knight" class, unavailable in AD&D non-Dragonlance RPGs. Characters in this game may level-up to higher levels and obtain new skills as well as more powerful spells. Experienced Knights may ultimately choose one out of 3 "clans" to focus more on a different type of fighting style.

Adventuring consists of either overland map travel or the standard 1st person town adventure. The player's party consists of 6 characters (of which one must be a Knight) as well as possible NPC characters joining your party. Wandering monsters will of course attack the party on occasion so gear up and prepare for undead monster-bashing combat!

Subject: Actually
All you have to do to play is type cd dkk, and then type start.

The game works fine.
Reviewer: Jonathan Kaplow - favoritefavoritefavoritefavorite - February 16, 2018
Subject: Game is playable
Not sure who to contact, but the game has been installed to the wrong folder.

Follow directions:
1. Exit to Dos
2. cd.. (this will bring you to the root of C)
3. dir (this will show you the folder DKKrynn
4. md dkk (this will make a directory called dkk as I couldn't seem to be able to rename the original)
5. copy c:\dkkrynn c:\dkk (copies the files into the new directory)
6. cd dkk (pus you in the directory)
7. start (game starts)
8. Use this for journal entries (http://www.lemonamiga.com/games/docs.php?id=439)

very eager to play the old D & D games from strategic simulations but they do not allow you to save anything. Please fix this as soon as possible.
